Thoroughly enjoyed Sunday lunch at the Bustard Inn yesterday! Whitebait starter was lovely, particularly the spicy tartar sauce, we then both went for the beef and Yorkshire etc. One pink, the other well done, both available and both delicious!

Valentines

A real touch of class, with some of the most amazing food in the local area. Attention to detail, outstanding customer service, the most beautiful setting and a relaxed atmosphere mean that The Bustard Inn simply oozes quality. It is head and shoulders ahead of the competition, and is our guilty pleasure…

REALLY LOVELY!
Having enjoyed a lunch there some time ago, I decided to introduce a friend to The Bustard, as she had not been before, and it was her birthday. Well, it was a lovely evening, the owner was friendly and the waitress was efficient, and the dining room itself is magnificent. The food… Read more “lizinlincs (TripAdvisor), February 2020”

Lovely village pub with a lovely Sunday lunch menu.

Sunday Lunch Returned to The Bustard today after many years away, all I can say is not only was the food excellent (had roast beef, and was asked how I wanted it, pink or well done, that is a rarity nowadays) but the service from the staff was excellent, thank you Lesley.

From start to finish it was welcoming. Can’t praise the food and service highly enough. Absolutely excellent. Thank you.

Impeccable service and the food was outstanding, a must visit if you’re in the area. We had the Camembert starter and pork for mains. The pork was out of this world and super delicious. For the dessert I highly recommend you try the ‘Queen of puddings’ you will not regret it. Overall 10/10 experience!

Absolutely superb! We were celebrating my hubbies 40th so they made it special, arranging tables etc and it was so easy with the children, ages 6 – 69.

I would highly recommend – we were overnight in Sleaford on our way to the coast and were delighted with the food and helpful staff at The Bustard Inn

From walking in and being greeted by a really welcoming friendly landlady Lesley to being presented with a beautifully cooked and presented lunch and then having just the right amount of attention during our afternoon of catching up from the whole team made it a perfect afternoon.

The bar was very busy and there was a good atmosphere! We had a drink and the staff were very happy to take our order at the bar or table as we wished. Even though we ate in the bar the table was laid with proper cloth napkins….a nice change from the paper ones.

Can’t fault it. Best restaurant around.

The food was amazing. Myself and my partner have both said we will be returning and bringing family with us so they can try the food. We haven’t tasted food like it.

Great food, fantastic service, lovely atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Had a lovely lunch the day before our daughter’s wedding there, both the lunch and the wedding were superb. A big shout out to Lesley & her team for their work.

Our group of 7 enjoyed a fabulous Sunday roast, it was absolutely delicious. The service and speed of food arrival were also excellent.

Everyone was very friendly and helpful, the food absolutely delicious, well presented, and hot. The venue was delightful and very clean (including the toilets, an area often forgotten but very important). Thank you to everyone for making the experience a very good one, I am sure we will be back even though we live out… Read more “Barbara, October 2019”

The Bustard Inn is a gem. Great staff and fabulous food.

A hidden gem!

I have driven past The Bustard Inn for many years and never quite been able to visit. First impressions were great, and I was amazed to see how big the restaurant was.

Excellent and really delicious food. Staff lovely and service excellent. Carry on doing what you are doing. I would highly recommend The Bustard. 😊😊

We’ve eaten here six times over the past four years and always have a great meal. I think this was my favourite so far, rib-eye steak followed by lemon meringue pie. Delicious food and great service.

Lovely food and staff. Had a gorgeous meal and the staff are so friendly and helpful just added to the lovely evening. Wish it was more Local to me – I would become a regular visitor.

Clean, good food, staff very helpful, didn’t take long for the food to come. It all tasted fab. Well presented. I normally take photos of the food but it looked so good I just had to eat it. Toilets were very clean.

Food was amazing and the staff excellent. Highly recommend.

Excellent food and good local ale.

Excellent food. Friendly staff. Would book again

Highly recommend. Food tasty and service faultless. High standard for pub food, although perhaps a little pricey but worth it for the quality. There is a light lunch option, which we had – smaller portions at a lower price which means that you can sample more than one dish when you don’t want a big… Read more “Helen Atkinson, September 2019”

Fantastic food. Lovely, clean interior. Friendly & helpful staff.

Lovely atmosphere, friendly and welcoming as always 😊 Amazing food – our favourite place to go locally, always top quality

Each experience has been impressive

Lovely evening with my family. Nice place to visit if you want something a bit special. Good choice of ale and wine.

Birthday Sunday lunch I have driven past The Bustard Inn hundreds of time but never visited. I was celebrating my birthday with family and had Sunday lunch. WOW. What a surprise. From the outside the building looks dark. It was a total surprise. The dining room is lovely and light. Beautiful in fact. We had… Read more “Chrismar50 (TripAdvisor), August 2019”

Had another fantastic meal. Service extremely friendly and very welcoming. The Chef was very accommodating with different food options as there was one vegetarian in our party. I requested if possible to have a square table of 8 rather than in a long line. Which made the icing on the cake as we were all… Read more “Paula, August 2019”

As always a great meal/experience …this time my wife’s birthday lunch on a Sunday. Friendly, professional service. Excellent meal, great choice even for a Sunday lunchtime.

Went to the Bustard with a couple of friends for a midweek lunch. I had never eaten there before but my guess is that I shall eat there again. I chose the fish n’ chips and everything on the plate was absolutely delicious, including the minted mushy peas (and I don’t like mint ! –… Read more “ClanGunn (TripAdvisor), August 2019”

Great, no, FANTASTIC meal, lovely staff

Real ale and some pub grub. Pure delight.

Outstanding food, atmosphere and service. We always enjoy our visits. Nice to see some new items on the menu as well as old favourites. We will be back!

Superb food, excellent service and a lovely setting. We will be back soon!

Really lovely place to eat and drink. Well worth a visit. A little more expensive than the norm, however it was well worth the extra expense.

We loved our lunch and the staff were so sweet and friendly. Planning on making another visit.

The vegetarian dish was delicious

Great food as always

Excellent service and fabulous food. Thank you – we will be definitely revisiting

Very welcoming. Excellent service. Our lunch was extremely tasty, very well-presented and more than enough, leaving no room to sample the delicious sounding puddings. Perhaps we will next time, as we will certainly be back. Thank you.

Great place to grab some lunch. I always find the staff really friendly. Food was excellent and priced accordingly. Enjoy!

As always the quality of the food was excellent. I enjoyed the pink roast beef and my daughter was “blown away” by the Mushroom Gnocchi. Bar staff, waitresses couldn’t be more helpful. Lovely place.

Service very good, staff efficient and friendly. Meal excellent, pud to die for. Must be best in area.

Love coming here, weather was lovely so sat outside for a family meal. Service was just as quick and attentive as inside.

Our group of 25 had lunch last Thursday. The food from the gnocchi to the fish and chips to the sticky toffee pudding were outstanding. The staff were welcoming, friendly, efficient and professional. We visited many places in Lincolnshire that day but for many the highlight was lunch at The Bustard Inn.

Me and my partner won a competition on social media for a 3 course meal and from the minute we arrived we received incredible service. Staff and Lesley herself were so polite and the food was amazing. The atmosphere was great and although we didn’t have to pay for our meal the prices were spot… Read more “jodvine11 (TripAdvisor), July 2019”

Booked online at 10am, lovely welcome as usual food excellent, service first class , plenty of menu choice. Would recommend to everyone. Thank you.

First time to the Bustard Inn – and won’t be the last, the service was great, quality of food fantastic (though a little expensive). No GF option but the chef did effortlessly cater for this and changed a dish to accommodate, very much appreciated. Highly recommended.

Wonderful meal for our 10th wedding anniversary. Wine was lovely, the food was simply outstanding every dish we ordered was faultless, the service was fabulous. Can’t find any faults at all. Highly recommend. Thank you all for such a wonderful evening.

Wonderful evening, service was fabulous even with a number of guests in dining, meals were luscious as always. See you in 2020!!!

We had a super anniversary meal on Tuesday the 23rd. The atmosphere is lovely and the food excellent quality and a great price. My husband commented it was the best steak he has had in a very long time. We will be back soon.

Amazing service, lovely food – would highly recommended!

Great food, great staff, thank you – we will be back
